Upon arriving back to my private room after a chest x-ray, I was told all my belongings had been moved to another common room which was inconveniently located from the common bathroom due to my lack of mobility and incontinence. I understand the reason they gave my room to someone with a higher priority due to, I believe, infectious or sensitive conditions, however, I felt the manner in which it was handled was very rude and underhanded.
Also, sadly the food/meals leave a lot to be desired, in particular, the egg and mayo sandwiches, the eggs taste watery, as if rehydrated and in my opinion, there is no sign of mayo anywhere in sight. The most disappointing fact is that as a hospital caterer for 27 years of service, I recall our standards and level of quality was top-notch, I, in fact, was one of the best, not to brag, but perhaps you can comprehend my disappointment.
As my health issues are many and complicated, I am frequently admitted to hospital and it would be wonderful if the food standard could be rectified at least in some small capacity.
